no matter the details of this, most will look at it how it is, its was at CRD for a bloody long time, they built it so good on them for that but they didnt deliver the final result, and in alot of peoples minds that is what counts!! call it how it is... the JEZ kicked ass with it, you'll have some wobbly knees in the next week when you drop the hammer pete, so jealous right now...

Well done Pete, great result!!!! Am looking forward to some vids :D

When I posted the pic of the 6Boost being installed I had an email from the old builder saying , oh you might notice the Turbo is a different model, I said yes it was noticed and he said that he told me about this when the build was being done, I said I think I would remember that, he said I might have been pissed, good call but that is something I would remember , well , I would think I would remember, hic hic

This does seem pretty weird I reckon. If they had already told you about the turbo, why bother writing you an email to "remind" you. Oh well, it's all done now, enjoy it for what it is :)

If most look a bit deeper the truth is quite obvious, you didn't have to be Nostradamus to worked it out 30 pages back. Nothing has changed in 15 years of forum garage battles. A shame really.

But what's important is Pete gets his car back and is happy with it.

I remember reading an article and an english guy built a RIPS RB30 in a R33 with a PPG Getrag 6Speed they detuned it to 700HP as the torque smashed the gearbox to peices after a launch down the strip.

Was on pump gas too.

So have fun hahahaha with that monster and that insane torque number. Think there are reasons AMG also electronically limit their torque numbers :P

You are right, they just bought the Turbo thing up AFTER I posted pics of the cracks in the manifold and 6boost, I was surprised to get an email from them,

Matters not, I have not stopped smiling since I got the Dynos and could see the car is running much better, even at my piss stops through the night I had a smile :yes:

Vids, what sort of vids can I do, Dyno tunes are boring , see if I can get some tyre action if my drive line and AD08Rs let me without leaving the box behind :bomb_ie:

Well , thanks, I think lol

I will see how it feels and go from there, it will be interesting to see how it feels to drive instead of looking at a Dyno graph, about 700rpm earlier full boost,so see if it gets it going.

The tractive effort/torque is 974Nm , peaking at 5250rpm

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
